LoL Hydra LoL

There is nothing wrong with what Hydra did. You gotta see it from their point of view also instead of only your own, you idiots.
Most of you do not understand what it takes to run a business. Just cause some of you got lucky from flogs, media buys, and runnin scams, doesn't means you have any idea how to run a legitimate service based business.

and Bryn Youngbutt. can you take a picture with your head not tilted I think you may have Torticollis - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia . (im a neurologist so i can help you)
 


My Dear Friends, The Hydra owners are very very big fans of sir. Herbert Spencer. The time has changed my friends, They work on the theory of " Survival of The Fittest". Just like the Hitler quoted in the world war " The strongest forces will rule, and weak ones will perish." that's why he lost the battle, lord ganesha got angry on him and then boom baam.
 
I'm sure my Hydra account has been deactivated too, since I don't run shit with them but I don't see a problem with what they did. I think it's a necessary step for them to try and remain a viable company.

Could be a pain in the ass at 2am on a Saturday when I decide I want to test one of their offers, but the trade off for them is probably worth it. If I have to wait a couple days to get a new account so be it. I distrust Hydra based on some of the shit that went on awhile ago, but if anything this makes me thing they *might* be finally cleaning up their act.
 
I feel left out. I think I will go sign up just so I can be deactivated and bitch about it in this thread.
 
I have yet to shut any accounts down, but I do mark accounts as inactive (assuming we tried emailing, AIMing, and calling multiple times) and once they login they're back on our high-risk compliance list.

I've yet to have serious problems with inactive affiliates coming back as frauders. We do a pretty extensive vetting before letting them in.
 
Azoogle sent me an email one time saying they were closing my account. I asked my AM and he told me it was because I hadn't logged in in a while, which was complete bs. I was logged in at least once a day for the week and the fools had unpaid commissions to me when this all went down.

Affiliate.com closed my account due to inactivity. It's not just Hydra that does this stupid shit.

To networks that close accounts due to inactivity, I say fuck you! There's a shit ton of other networks to work with. I take such things as insults. lol
 
I don't get this, several others have done this and no one cares, when Hydra does it then it's a huge deal. I personally don't like it and don't think it's a good move, but whatever that's just my opinion, but I have the same opinion for every network that does this.

So my account was suspended due to inactivity. I contacted my AM and basically asked WTF? She replied with "how long has it been since you generated any revenue with Hydra?" and I replied that I haven't run anything for about 6 months now. She said "that's why" and basically told me that they're clearing out their system for "Hydra 2.0". She said even affiliates that haven't generated anything within the last month were deactivated.

She went on to tell me that Hydra now only prefers to work with only top earning publishers and then had the nerve to ask how much rev I did last year with other networks. When I told her some rough figures, things obviously changed and now she's in a big hurry to reactivate my account. I must say now I'm not so stoked to even wanna split test anything with them after this bullshit move.

I know we've talked about this time after time here on WF as to why the fuck networks would deactivate inactive accounts is beyond me. "We only want to work with high earning publishers". Lol, how the fuck do you think you'll get to work with high earning publishers if you don't give people a chance? Little do stupid networks like this know that the newb affiliate that's making $10 a day one month won't do $100K the following month. Or the other affiliate who does big numbers with one network one day decides to split test an offer and drop traffic bomb on Hydra, only to discover their account has been deactivated.

WTFG Hydra once again.

Ummm I don't really see why everyone is making such a big deal out of this and singling Hydra out.

Maybe because they are an easy target?
Maybe because they are a favorite to poke fun at?

Those should be the only two reasons why, because almost all the networks do it, and have been doing so forever.

Its actually a very smart thing to do as a network because like Mike pointed out a lot of the big affiliate fraud rings bank on old inactive accounts to get through the cracks and avoid detection that new accounts typically get. Plus networks have a handful of AM's and since they are human, you can't really expect them to handle thousands of accounts when the majority of them are inactive or not producing any worthwhile volume.

If you don't like what they do, then don't fucking use them as a network, its not like there aren't 20,000 others to choose from that do the same damn thing. If Hydra wants to refocus their business model towards the quality top 5% of the affiliates, what's so wrong about that? They'll be running into stiff competition obviously, but if anything that shows that they haven't given up yet and that they are still trying.

I'm not playing favorites, this goes for all networks, but you singled Hydra out, so I will too.

I was thinking the same thing. If you havent used your account in 6 months why do you even care if they de activated you. And whats wrong with them cleaning out their network of inactive affiliates. I personally dont run with them, but I see no point to this thread.

imo he's right. they owe you shit so why should they keep you in the DB?

if you want to run with them just get them on the phone and bam, you're back in! woa, that was difficult.

Networks that close accounts due to inactivity are just fucking themselves out of any possible future business with that affiliate. Why would a network do that? Most networks are constantly trying to get new large affiliates to join them.

Here's a crazy idea. Instead of closing an account and destroying any possible future business, why not get in contact with the affiliate and see why they're not active? Woa, that would actually make sense though wouldn't it?

I guess you missed the point about changing the business model... eh?
 
I just checked out hydra OMG They are great i wish i was good enough with CPA to make 10k a month. That isnt easy for any IM that is quite a stride.
 
I just got my Neverblue account disabled as well due to inactivity.... seems everyone is getting involved.
 
tried threatening once on closing accounts due to inactivity... just backfired....now I am a bit more careful with that one...
Although I do understand he guys from Hydra... anyway...
